Discover 36 fun side quest ideas for real life and romanticize your existence.

Fun Side Quest Ideas For Real Life (With Point System)

Transform your life into a fun video game with these 36 side quest ideas for real life! See this as romanticizing your existence, but on a higher level. 

Side quests are a term that comes from video games. It is offshoot quests that don’t contribute directly to the main quest. I always do all the side quests and avoid the main quest in video games *iykyk*.

Therefore, side quests are things you can do to elevate your experience in real life. 

I have incorporated a point system to go along with these side quest ideas, just for a bit of fun. They are divided into 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 points, with the difficulty increasing as the points do.

Without further ado, say goodbye to being bored and mundane, and hello to mini adventures!
